Deron Williams admitted he doesn’t know yet what he’s going to do when the Nets present him with an offer for a contract extension.

The team will be able to do that this summer — as soon as the NBA and its players union negotiates a new collective bargaining agreement — but the point guard said Thursday he can envision staying with the Nets long term.

“I like this organization a lot,” Williams said at the Nets’ breakup day at the practice facility in East Rutherford. “I like the direction they’re going. They made me and my family feel real comfortable since I’ve gotten here.

“I like Coach (Avery) Johnson — the way he coaches and the way he carries himself. I definitely can see myself staying here.”

Those comments had to make the organization feel good about the chances of keeping Williams, who can opt to become a free agent after next season. But Johnson has been confident all along that the Nets will keep their star point guard, and continued to sound optimistic Thursday.

“We have a lot of confidence about his situation,” Johnson said. “I feel Deron has totally bought in to what we’re doing. We have great communication with him; with his family. I really believe he is a sincere guy. And he’s a man of his word. And I can’t divulge any of our private conversations, but I really feel good about Deron next season in a Nets uniform, and on into the future.”

Williams, who played 12 games for the Nets after coming over from Utah Feb. 23 in a trade for Devin Harris, Derrick Favors, two first-round picks and $3 million, underwent surgery Monday to remove bone fragments and scar tissue from his injured right wrist, which caused him to miss the final five games of the season.

Williams was initially “pretty angry” when the doctor told him last week he needed surgery, as he had been told rest was all he would need to heal the wrist.

However, the Nets said when they did a “fine-cut” MRI exam on Williams last week, loose particles and scar tissue were discovered that impeded his ability to fully flex the wrist.

Doctors told Williams if he didn’t have surgery the wrist would continue to be prone to injury and continue to bother him, as it had the last three months of the season.

Williams, who finished the season with averages of 20.1 points and 10.3 assists per game (15.0 points and 12.8 assists with the Nets), said he got over his initial anger at the diagnosis and now looks forward to getting the splint off in about two weeks and getting back on the golf course.

The Nets had said it would be six to eight weeks before Williams would be able to resume basketball activities, but Williams said he is confident it won’t take that long.

As for what he liked so much about the Nets that would make him consider staying, Williams said he has developed a good relationship with Johnson and GM Billy King, with whom he talks often about the direction of the franchise.

“We’ve had a lot of open communication in a short period of time that I really like,” Williams said. “And just the organization in general, how they handle themselves from top to bottom. I think everybody has just been great here and I like how things are run.”
